I have a small sound issue in Lakka (on the Pi 3 model B+) and was wondering if anyone knows how to fix it. Basically, everytime I start Lakka I have no sound using the Speaker jack.
This answer from a couple of years ago works for me: Audio over Speaker Jack in Lakka?
amixer cset numid=3 1
....but I have to redo the procedure in Putty every time I restart the Pi. Anyone knows how to make the change permanent/default? Is that doable?
Thanks!
I don't know if there is an option in /boot/config.txt or somewhere else that can be set but you have always the possibility to run
amixer cset numid=3 1
on boot up with a systemd unit file.
You can add this command into .config/autostart.sh file (.config usually under /storage， also home dir). If it does not exist, create one.
___.desktop file under .config/autostart, although I do not know if the default DE on Raspbian uses that properly (assuming the OP uses Raspbian). Also, this will only run if someone logs into a GUI desktop as that user.
Use Putty to login to your Pie User = root Password = root
At the terminal cmd prompt type
nano /storage/.config/autostart.sh
This will create a startup file
Inside this file type in
amixer cset numid=3 1
Use ctrl x to exit the file then Y to save the file.
Reboot and your sound should now be coming from your audio jack every time you startup Lakka
